Two years in the making, “THE CRAZIES” (The Zombie Song) marks the first new material released by DieTrich since MARAZENE‘s 2011’s critically hailed cover of MOTLEY CRUE‘s “LIVE WIRE.” and subsequent final single “WELCOME TO YOUR HOLIDAY.”

After spending the majority of 2012 locked away in his personal studio writing, arranging, and programming 40+ songs, DieTrich emerged for several minutes to announce his new project only to dive back into a 15 hour marathon studio session with drummer CHRIS EMERY of AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE. Other announced studio special guests include AARON “MONTY” MONTGOMERY (TRAPT), ANGEL BARTOLOTTA (DOPE, TEAM CYBERGEIST), CHRIS TELKES (NOCTURNE, THE RAZORBLADE DOLLS), and PROVO PROVENZANO (SKINLAB, RIKETS).

Provo has also been the engineering force behind the project. Said Provo: “BEAUTY IN THE SUFFERING is one of the most exciting projects I’ve worked on lately. DieTrich is insanely precise in the studio and has a great vision for where his songs need to be and the diy ability and attitude to get it done right. DieTrich has also brought in some amazing studio musicians to help round out a unique and catchy collection of gritty and electronic based tunes. I can’t wait to get these songs out for the world to hear!”

BEAUTY IN THE SUFFERING are currently editing multiple full production videos for “THE CRAZIES” (The Zombie Song) as well as 2 other tracks, “REVEILLE” and “JULIET” that the band plans to drop in the coming weeks. Release dates for the songs and the videos are forthcoming.

CHICAGO, IL (DLSP) — BEAUTY IN THE SUFFERING, the newly launched electro-metal studio project from producer Dietrich Thrall (MARAZENE), have shifted gears and have begun filming multiple videos to support their initial digial releases set to drop this fall.

While “The Crazies” studio recording features ANGEL BARTOLOTTA (DOPE, TEAM CYBERGEIST) on drums and CHRIS TELKES (NOCTURNE, THE RAZORBLADE DOLLS) on guitar as guest musicians, drummer CHRIS EMERY of AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE and guitarist PROVO PROVENZANO (SKINLAB, RIKETS, EVERYBODY PANIC!) are featured in the video.

Band performance footage was also previously filmed in August at VOODOO LOUNGE located in the Oklahoma City, OK metropolitan area for “REVEILLE” and “JULIET“. Special guests on the pair of videos includes drummer LEVI DICKERSON and bassist COREY HENDERSON of NUCLEAR BLAST recording artists ANTI-MORTEM.

“Been very busy in Thrall World putting together a bunch of performance footage for three BEAUTY IN THE SUFFERING videos for all of our initial releases. Have some very talented cats on board for this and canNOT wait to get them out to everyone! The videos will all tie in together with a zombie themed narrative we will be filming in October.’

The initial 3 songs as a whole will encompass music, videos, a short film, original artwork, and eventually a book which will further highlight DieTrich’s multi-media approach and vision as an artist.

“Very few people ever attempt the scope of a project such as this,” commented GABE WILKINSON of COMA Music Magazine, “which makes BEAUTY IN THE SUFFERING one of the most exciting new bands to keep an eye out for.”

Dietrich is best known for his co-founding and co-visionary role in the industrial-metal band MARAZENE (later called MARAZENE MACHINE). From managing the band during its most active and successful national touring years (2006-2008), to co-producing the band’s critically hailed cover of MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s “Live Wire” in 2011 as well as the band’s lone official full-length album (“MachiNation“, 2006), to writing fan-favorite tracks such as “Give”, to guiding the band’s philosophical and edgy lyrical approach (“AnTiThesis”, “Infidel Society”), to producing multiple videos for the band, Dietrich’s contributions and influence are heavily noted.
